Setting the vibration reduction ON/
OFF switch (Fig. B)
ON: Vibration is reduced while the
shutter- release button is pressed
halfway and also at the instant the
shutter is released. Because vibration
is reduced in the viewfinder, auto/
manual focusing and exact framing
of the subject are easier.
OFF: Vibration is not reduced.
